Hello. and Help

[Joe Scaduto]

Hello All.
I'm quite new to the whole forum thing, So if there is a certain way to do things please feel free to let me know.
I consider myself well on my way to achievement. I'm broke, I have very little time on my hands, I work with 2 guys that are very negative (and often bring me down), but I'm very motivated to become successful in the music business. I am going to buy a computer and start recording demo's for commercials. I'm happily married, and I have two wonderful, young and demanding children ages 2, & 5.
So here is where I need some helpful advise
I need to get away from the job I have, because of the negativity. The thought of getting another job is kind of nauseating to me. I know that I could be successful at freelance commercial writing, I feel that this could be a valuable service in today's economy (people need to advertise to get customers in there doors. I need a computer to get started (this computer wont do, I'm lucky to have e-mail on this thing) and a new computer (to fit my needs) will run about $2,500.00. The thought of financing it scares me (more so my wife who does the bills) but I don't know how else to come up with the money. Do I Take the leap and "spend money to make money" ? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I'm very excited to join this discussion group. I'm looking forward to hearing from you, and getting to know you.
I'm eager to network, and talk to like minded people.
Sincerely
Joe

I dig you Man! I do see myself being very successful at music. I heard an affirmation by Sandra Taylor the other day stating "Although there is scarcity in the world it does not effect me. I am experiencing success, and wealth" (or something like that).

Cabinetry is great. I know a guy through my line of work that does exactly that. Now he is starting to build guitars. They are very high quality. He is Into the Law of Attraction, although not as spiritual. He's a great guy. Rick Penta. I know he's got a web site. He is having no lack of work I can tell you that.

Best
Joe

Affirmations are good. However, it's been my experience and observation that one must internalize their desires. In other words, more mental work in needed beyond just saying and thinking. That's just theory. If you plan on repeating an affirmation until you get it then you are only confirming its absence. If you create the vivid memory of having something and then release it with the faith that it is on the way, then you will not need to repeat a saying. (Affirmations are good to have in reserve in case your mind drifts to negative thoughts.) Creating should (I think) be done from an unadulterated space in the mind. For example, you see an item that you can't afford and wish for it to appear in your life. That would be creating from a place of lack.

At the time of day that you are most peaceful and clear dream of something completely new and completely you. Something from only your heartfelt desires. Keep the item simple, but detail, and don't attach the thought of it to any other thing. Then let the thought go out of your attention. Experiment and hone your skill. Expect results.

It is your nature to create with your mind. So get with it.
